Hello Anastasius!


Those uploads are not meant for inclusion to begin with, since they don't
implement anything (that's why I call them "changed stubs", rather than patches
or implementations).

Those I uploaded merely as workarounds so that users can run the affected
application even before a proper and working implementation makes it into Wine.

I did indeed read your hints in comment #7 before.
But since I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to DEP, Wine and all the
OS-dependent implementations this particular issue would need, I won't attempt
to write an implementation worth of inclusion any time soon - this is just
beyond my abilities.

Considering that this doesn't seem to affect many applications or any popular
application, I expect there will be more years passing by (5 passed already)
until a proper implementation happens - if ever at all.

So yeah, my upload is just for those who want to run the application right now
(e.g. those recently asking for help on the appdb page of the Application)


Nonetheless I appreciate your reply :)
